   • Select "More settings" from the dropdown menu.
   • Scroll down to the "Accounts" section and click on "Edit".
   • Under "Account settings", toggle the switch next to "IMAP" to the "On" position.
2. Set up Thunderbird to connect to Yahoo Mail using IMAP:
   • Open Thunderbird and go to "Tools" > "Account Settings".
   • Click on "Add Mail Account" and select "Manual Setup".
   • Enter your name, email address, and password.
   • Select "IMAP" as the account type.
   • Enter the following settings:
     • Incoming server: imap.yahoo.com
     • Port: 993
     • Security: SSL/TLS
     • Outgoing server: smtp.yahoo.com
     • Port: 587
     • Security: STARTTLS
   • Click "Create Account" to finish setting up the account.

Method 2: Using a third-party add-on

1. Install the "Yahoo Mail" add-on for Thunderbird:
   • Go to the Thunderbird Add-ons website and search for "Yahoo Mail".
   • Click on the "Add to Thunderbird" button to install the add-on.
2. Configure the add-on:
   • Open Thunderbird and go to "Tools" > "Add-ons" > "Extensions".
   • Find the "Yahoo Mail" add-on and click on the "Options" button.
   • Enter your Yahoo Mail login credentials and click "Save".

Using either method, you should be able to access your Yahoo Mail account in Thunderbird. Note that you may need to adjust the settings slightly depending on your specific setup and preferences.
